If the authors have used the work and/or words of others, this has been appropriately cited or quoted. Authors should cite publications that have been influential in determining the nature of the reported work.

When reproducing figures or using text elements from other publications in your manuscript, please provide proof that you have obtained the necessary copyright permission which must be sent to the Editor-in-Chief by separate e-mail when submitting the manuscript.
